Default Chad Brown Interview...guy\'s got the Zen thing down...

Sick Run at the WSOP this year with 8 cashes...I think he's the most underrated tourney player...will he ever win a bracelet? If I had those pythons I'd probably break the table in half after taking those beats...

PokerLizard: You've had seven cashes so far, at this World Series of Poker? Are you proud of your achievement, or are you just getting frustrated that the elusive bracelet stays just slightly out of your grasp?

Chad Brown: Well, you know, I went into this World Series with – I’m the type of person that sets goals for myself. I set a really, really high bar for myself, not to win one bracelet, but to win two bracelets. I feel I put myself into position to accomplish that. The loss to Erik Seidel, there's really absolutely nothing I could have done. I had Erik Seidel all-in three times, where two times I was a favorite – a pretty big favorite at one time.

We were even money. And, in fact, on the fourth time when I got knocked out, which would have made me even inchips with him if I would have won, once again, I was more than a 2 to 1 favorite. I drew 1, he drew 2, and I actually made a monster in Deuce-to-seven. I made a 9/7, and he just happened to make an 8. So I'll be honest, after getting knocked out from that and not winning the bracelet, I didn't feel badly at all. I felt, hey, I did absolutelyeverything I possibly could have done and it just wasn't in the cards.

He was bluff player of the year last year, how can he be underrated?

I mean by public perception...whenever the topic comes up...who's the best, his name usually isn't listed.

It's always, Negreanu, Hellmuth, Annette 15...etc...

He was bluff player of the year last year, how can he check quads w/Ace kicker HU vs Kristy Gazes?

Probably because he didn't win a major tournament last year, thats why.

AND not know he had the best hand. It's not like he did it to see Kristy's hole (cards).
